With more weather bearing down on Greater Cincinnati, the Reds tacked on one run apiece in the second and third innings. Matt McLain's second-inning single plated Jose Trevino, and Will Benson notched his third RBI of the series in the third when his single drove in Steer, who doubled.

Spencer Steer hit a two-run home run and Nick Lodolo allowed two runs on three hits in five innings to help the Cincinnati Reds beat the Minnesota Twins 4-2 in a rain-shortened game.

CINCINNATI -- For the first time this season, the Cincinnati Reds are four games over .500 at 39-35. Their 4-2 win over the Minnesota Twins Wednesday night gives them four straight wins, four straight series wins and nine wins in their last 11 games.
